Frankly, the the only way I'd be a winner beyond the
local level in
the World Class would be if I could use the LS4 some
people dream about
as the World Class glider.


Eric,

I dont get your point.... are you saying that if the
World Class glider was the LS4 you would win National
or International Compeition but as its a PW5 you cant?
Surely your skills/knowledge are relevant in a one
glider class regardless of which glider it is? Whether
it be a PW5 or a LS4.

Which brings us kind of full circle. The argument is
not against the World Class just against the requirements
and in turn against the PW5. As far as I can see the
requirements have killed any chance the World Class
had of success before it even started. And to be honest
I think there is enough evidence of that to prove that
it isnt just an opnion.

Personally I think the World Class has missed the boat.
The club class is taking over the 'Affordable competition'
section of competitive gliding.
